Answer:

The area of x is 4

The area of the right triangle is 6

Explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem can be used when dealing with right triangles. So, if we use the equation a^2 + b^2 = c^2, we can find that 3^2 + x^2 = 5^2 or 9 + x^2 = 25. If we calculate, we can find that x is equal to 4. Now if we multiply by 3 and divide by 2, we can get the answer of 6 as the area of the right triangle.
